Friday Gratitudes 26 & 27

Posted by Carolyn on July 11, 2014 2 Comments

Halfway through the year, and still loving this project.  I love taking the time to be grateful every single day.  I (obviously) don’t always get around to posting these every Friday, right on time, but I do always getting around to writing down my gratitude of the day on my calendar list.

Saturday June 28: Breakfast.

Sunday June 29: Ice Cream. Alma had her first experience with an ice cream truck!  What magic!

Monday June 30:  Parks.

Tuesday July 1: Friends. We have some good ones!

Wednesday July 2: Adventure. We rode the ‘green bus,’ saw some construction, ran around the campus, and went to the track meet.  Good, good, good day.

Thursday July 3: Hult. We went to buy tickets to the Oregon Bach Festival kids concert and spent quite a long time exploring the Hult Center and all of its cool art.

Friday July 4: ‘Merica.Duh.

Saturday July 5: OBF. Oregon Bach Festival offers such great things for everyone, including concerts for kids.  This year it was Sleeping Beauty, which was a long poem performed by one man with multimedia art on a projector, and a pianist.  It was pretty cool, and Alma was enthralled!

Sunday July 6: Beach.  Oh how I love the beach.

Monday July 7:  Family.

Tuesday July 8:  Eugene.

Wednesday July 9: Runners.  Both the common nouns – Alma really loves running on the track at Hayward Field – and the proper nouns – the Runners are fun friends!

Thursday July 10: Swimming. Alma is getting so brave jumping in the water again and again and again and again and again!  And Harriet loves floating and splashing and laughing.

A Little Moment 5

Alma and Harriet are at home asleep.

I am grateful to be able to help out a friend who is a very special mama. 

She just came home from Africa where she spent 8 months with her son adopting two daughters.

Boots all lined up are a beautiful thing because they represent a whole family finally at home, together.

If God said, ‘Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,’ there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to. -Rumi
